FME Flow

Hi all,Is there a way to export an automation, i.e. port it -in my case- from a Development Server setup to a UAT setup? Thanks, Klaas

Logging to FME Server fails, I couldn’t figure out why I’m getting the message shown in the screenshot below: “couldn’t connect to FME core” In addition to that, Windows fails to start the FME Server Core. What could be the issue here?  

We are in the process of setting up a new license server for ArcGIS and FME, and I'm struggling with getting the FME license up and running.I have read https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/19459/arcgis-and-fme-on-same-flexlm-license-server.html and https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/19460/specify-port-numbers-used-by-flexlm.html and have adjusted the FME license file to run om port 28001 (leaving ArcGIS to use the default ports). Using LMTOOLS to get server status, it says that the service is up:--------Status--------Flexible License Manager status on Mon 2/11/2019 16:48[Detecting lmgrd processes...]License server status: 28001@A05-P1-LIC003    License file(s) on A05-P1-LIC003: C:\Program Files\FlexServer\safe.lic:A05-P1-LIC003: license server UP (MASTER) v11.15.0Vendor daemon status (on A05-P1-LIC003):      safe: UP v11.15.0Feature usage info:Users of FME:  (Total of 1 license issued;  Total of 0 licenses in use)Users of FME_GUI:  (Total of 1 license issued;  Total of 0 licenses in us

I recently applied for a new student license. The next day I used the license, a new computer arrived.So I applied for a new license but could not get it.Should I wait until the next update?

Hello, One of our FME Floating licenses has expired and we've got a new one. However, I don't know how should I proceed to install the new one. I've got just the new .fmelic file and I have access to the server. Thank you in advance.

Hello all.I require some guidance and clarification.I need to develop an application that would automatically translate input data to another output format, e.g., test.dgn into test.shpI have installed FMEServer and uploaded my workspace which does the work.I have managed to upload an input file from my pc to my uploaded workspace in the FMEServer by using your javascript demo application.However, my issue is that in reality my input files will be located in the Microsoft Azure Storage, and the workspace in FMEServer should be automatically triggered to run the process when it gets a call from my application with input link or when it sees that a new file where uploaded in Azure storage.I have tested my workspace by manualy pasting in the file shared access link (URL link) from Azure blob container as an input value, and the workspace ran successfully.I have read a bunch of articles about directories watch, and HTTPCaller, and as I am very new in the field, I got very confused.Question

You can now find a brief document on the partner portal under the 'Sales' page about processing FME Cloud orders via Salesforce. This document includes some brief scenarios about processing orders when it comes to FME Cloud via Salesforce. Please read through this and get in touch with your Channel Account Manager if you have further questions. Please note that this is an additional option for processing FME Cloud. Processing via credit card sales through the FME Cloud interface remains the same.  

I performed an upgrade of FME Server from 2018.1 to 2019, Windows 64 bit Server Express installation. Post install, I can get to the FME Server GUI but cannot log in to it. Have tried: logging in with AD credentials, admin/admin account, or SA account.Uninstall and reinstalling FME Server 2019Hitting different URL addresseshttp://servername/fmeserverhttp://servername:80/fmeserverhttp://ipaddress/fmeserverhttp://serveralias/fmeserverPlease help!

  We have a small app that sends jobs to FME Server 2018, it worked in FME server 2016, but now that we upgraded to 2018, we are getting a failure when it tries to use the upload service, basically the app says FME failed to provide a cookie. When I look at the Data Upload Service documentation, under Reponses Elements, I see this, which is what I guess the cookie is about.A session identifier that is always included in each data upload response as an HTTP cookie as well as in the body of the response. looking at the Service logs in FME Server 2018, I see this: This is the Data Upload log for your runue-09-Apr-2019 10:36:34.982 AM INFORM http-nio-80-exec-3 419011 : Creating new request object: path level = "1", requested path = "/NRM_AQS_TD_Export_Survey.xml", session ID = "user_public", uploaded files = [], workspace path = "/NRM Workbench/NRM_AQS_TD_Export_Survey.fmw", retrieve absolute paths = "false", extract files = "false&quo

I'm receiving emails via imap on FME server, I've set up a location to save the messages through the publisher, my problem is, it's using the subject line to create the folder name.These particular subject lines are extremely long and have some characters in them, such as : ° etc. So its creating the folders, but when i try to open the attachments, excel is limited to a 214 character file path, plus the unusual characters has been causing issues as well.I've tried to use a filecopy writer to move the file to a new simpler folder, but it's failing on that i think due to the file path. Is there a way to change how these attachments are being saved? I'd like to use something else other than subject line to create the folder.

Hello all, Is there a max workbench file size that can be published to FME Server? It seems 100 MB is the golden number, but wondering if anything larger can be published? I was testing a size of 200MB and it would not publish. Thanks!David

Hi I am trying to install FME Desktop 2019 onto an off network laptop Windows 10. Attached is the error I get during installation. I tried installing an older version of Desktop 2018 and this also gave me the same error. Then it rolls back and undoes the install.

Hello,i am attempting to roll out a silent install of FME 2018. The documentation is very good so i usemsiexec /i fme-desktop-2018.1.2-b18590-win-x64.msi /qb INSTALLLEVEL=3 INSTALLDIR="%programfiles%\\FME" ENABLE_POST_INSTALL_TASKS=noto run the installation.Unfortunately i get a message/ interrupt with a file in use error (i use /qr instead /qb to view the error). Is there an other switch to prevent this message? Best regards, Martin

Sometimes FME Server (2013 SP3) loses connection to the License-server. Is it possible to get an e-mail when there is currently "No active engine" on an FME Server installation? This should be possible as now we have to manually check now and then to see if FMEServer is "up and running"!

Hi, I am working in a production environment with FME Desktop and server of 2016 build 16717. And I have a problem receiving the Topic message on the production server. If I use a parameterFetcher I try to dereference the FME_TOPIC_MESSAGE, I get an error: undefined macro "FME_TOPIC_MESSAGE" dereferenced in file. When I do the same on my test machine everything works. I if I log every parameter on the Server I see no FME_TOPIC* parameters in my log. I have created a directory watch pubisher which publishes topic to this "example_topic", and a subscription workspace to run when this topic is triggered. When I test the topic either by placing a file on the watched directory, or "TOPICS/test topic" the workspace fires, but it does not receive a FME_TOPIC_MESSAGE. Anyone who knows what I'm doing wrong?

We have an FME Server setup that uploads and downloads data to/from S3 buckets, and this week all of a sudden I had several workspaces fail. One of them downloads datasets from a bucket onto the server as local resources for other jobs, the other one is a backup to a different bucket. The log says S3 access was denied, and the only thing that has changed is that we enabled MFA on our AWS user accounts this week. I've read a little about MFA and API access to S3, but the examples all include inputting the MFA code into the request. Is there a way FME can handle MFA and still get automated access to S3 buckets without needing to input an MFA code somewhere? How can we still get access to our S3 buckets through Server workspaces? Here is the error line from the log file:Attribute(encoded: UTF-8) : `_s3_error' has value `Access Denied (Service: Amazon S3; Status Code: 403; Error Code: AccessDenied; Request ID: 4A0AAECC919B8F68)'  Using FME Server 2018.1.1.2 - Build 18586 -

After installing FME Server 2018.1.2 ( Build 18590 - win 64 ), I'm getting the following erro message wehn trying toreach the Webgui from the server ( http://localhost/fmeserver ). Where can I found a log to solve that issue ?

I have notifications set up. When a user gets a notification email it has a url link to view/download the job log. The user is presented with a login screen. They login, but the download results for the log are empty. What permissions are needed to actually download the log file?

Hi everyone,I use FME daily in many crucial processes I have developed here and I am running into quite an issue.I have done some research here but don't think I found anything exactly the same as what I have so I will explain. I have just been moved to a new Win10 64bit Machine. I do a lot of processes to and from Smallworld and different types of ESRI environments as well as a lot of Database reading and writing.I find any process I am writing or using that has been written in the past that involves reading or writing from an Access Database is crashing especially on the writing to the database aspect. I get the following as it crashes:Microsoft Access Writer: Unable to find provider 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0', falling back to 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0'.

You may recall that FME Server 2016+ has integrated a “Failover” mode. As a result, Safe Software has discontinued issuing the previous independent Failover license files in 2016+.  We still frequently receive failover license file requests from both clients and partners. Please be advised that anyone requesting an FME Server failover license via the new server licensing will receive a message stating, “Note: Failover license use is no longer supported with this version of FME Server. For up-to-date details, please contact your account manager, local partner or ." They will automatically receive a 60-day temporary license.  This notification was scheduled to appear Monday, February 11. Please note that this is only for FME Server 2016+ requests. Floating license server and desktop requests will continue to work without issue. If you have any questions, reach out to your Channel Account Manager or .
